Dillon to Raiders

[Mr. Miyagi]

"The Bengals and Raiders are nearing an agreement on a trade that would send Dillon to Oakland in exchange for a draft pick, most likely in the third or fourth round, multiple sources close to the situation said on Wednesday.

The Bengals are believed to be pushing for a second-round pick, though the Raiders are unlikely to budge from their position."

wow, Dillon is a moron! He is going to leave a team that is on its way up, to go to a team who will be a bottom dweller for years to come

[McBFLO]

[The Spaz]

Well Dillon has stated the last 2-3 years he wants to leave.

They are letting him go cause he has stated for the past that he doesnt want to be there

[Mr. Cynical]

I dunno...after being with the worst team in footbal for so many brutal seasons I'd probably want to leave as well. Just because they weren't brutal last year doesn't necessarily mean the Bungals are a thing of the past. I won't be convinced until I see them go 8-8 or better this year.

Even so, being in sunny Oakland vs. cold Cincy doesn't sound too bad either. ;)

3rd or 4th rounder??? he is more valuble than that.

If Owens went for a 2nd rounder, Dillon for 3rd isn't far fetched.

Norv Turner loves strong running backs. Doesn't surprise me at all.
